Toi Ohomai Institute of Technology Secondary School Achiever Award 2021 Information Sheet for Applicants, Principals and Careers Advisors

Background These awards help to encourage local school leavers to continue their education at Toi Ohomai Institute of Technology. Selected students will receive a $2,500 study award to assist them with their first full year of study.

Value This is a one-off award to the value of $2,500 towards the first year of study. It can be used for any Toi Ohomai course/s where a student will be in full-time study for at least one year. A maximum of 40 Toi Ohomai Institute of Technology Secondary School Achiever Awards are available. This equates to a maximum of two students from each eligible secondary school, however, schools are welcome to submit an unlimited number of individual student applications.

Eligibility Applicants will need to meet the criteria for their chosen area of study at the time of enrolment. Applications are open to citizens and permanent residents only. Applicants must be nominated by a secondary school within the Toi Ohomai and South Waikato regions.

Criteria The criteria for selecting the award recipients is based on: • Demonstrated leadership potential Where a student demonstrates leadership abilities within the school environment. This may be formally, as a member of a school committee of some type (e.g. student representative, sports team), or informally as a person of positive influence upon their peers by means of their values and behaviours. • Cultural/sporting/academic achievement Where a student demonstrates an ability to apply themselves and excel in a challenging academic environment; and demonstrates a recognised talent in any form of cultural or sporting achievement. • Contribution to school/community Where a student has been contributing strongly to their school and/or community. May include community groups and organisations such as marae, church, youth groups, clubs, volunteer work etc. • Commitment to study/financial need Where a student demonstrates academic ability, as above, and is the subject of economic hardship that may limit their access to the resources needed to study at Toi Ohomai.

Closing Dates Applications close on Friday, 13 November 2020.
